Querry on ti parade

In CRM 8951 of 2012 at Kolkata High Court, I have been asked by the Ld. P.O. that why didn't I perform the TI Parade of the accused person during the bail hearing before the Division Bench of the said Ld. P.O. Fact is that four accused persons were arrested in a murder case registered with unknown accused persons. Verifying the call details of the mobile phones of deceased and the suspects I managed to arrest the accused persons on 05/03/12, while I got one witness on 02/05/12 who seen accused persons dragging one corpse. Later, watching T.V. the said witness identified the accused persons. I was under the instruction of my Additional Superintendent of Police to submit Charge Sheet for the custody trial of the accused persons. So, I have submitted the Charge Sheet against the said four accused persons. I have been fixed guilty by my department. Would anybody please suggest what wrong have I done with legal citations?
